Reinstalled SUSE 10.0 and updated to KDE 3.5.1 (From SUSE update site). Now when I try to copy something to the floppy disk I get one of two errors. "Only root can mount floppy" or "error trying to copy to floppy" or " according to mtab floppy is already mounted". I unmounted the floppy as root but still get errors.
My user is part of the group floppy. With SUSE 10.0 and KDE 3.4.2 this was working. This happens from several applications.
Any help would be appreciated.

Looks like they should allow me access, does floppy need to be a member of the group root? I'm a member of the group floppy.
Thanks for the reply
